Lyrics - Paroles de chansons

Turn it up
I don't know where you're plugging in
Listen up
Yeah, we're all set to begin
Turn it up
Because we hope you like it loud
Tune it up
Any second now
Making like
Cheeky Monkey grins
And for tonight
I'd love to let you in

Sick of you, how old do you think you are?
Never move, you think everything's too far
Telling you you're a fool but you don't wanna know
You think you do but let me tell you, you're not even close

I can't stay, you're in the way so
Listen when I'm talking

It's better than alright
I'm out there every night
You said to me you might
But you won't

What kept you? I'm not bothered any more
Complacent, got me headed for the door
Foot down, you're not allowed to look outside
You're frightened you'll find something that you like

I can't stay, you're in the way so
Listen when I'm talking

You tell me when I should
I don't drink in your pub
What makes you think I would,
Round your way?

I don't feel bad, I don't look back (x 3)

Shame on you, you hate everything that's new
You look down your nose at everything I do
You catch on years later, you're not even slow
Can't stay, have a good day, now I've gotta go
I can't stay, you're in the way so
Listen when I'm talking

It's better than alright
I'm out there every night
You said to me you might
When I'm talking

It's better than alright
I'm out there every night
You said to me you might
When I won't
Won't
Won't

My name is Jason
I'll rock yer face in
Cos I've got relations in my band
We like Van Halen
And Iron Maiden
I'll do the talkin', understand?

Cheeky Monkey
Cheeky Monkey
Yeah, you know I'm right
Do ya wanna fight?
I'll stay up all night
Just forget the time

Any time I want to
Any place I need to
I'll be there
Yeah, I'll be alright...

So get out the kitchen
Check out my pigeon
Fed-Ex are massive on my way
Jump on a rock bus
No-one can stop us
We're going bonkers today

Yeah, Cheeky Monkey!
Cheeky Monkey!
Do you know, I'm right!
Do ya wanna fight?
I'll stay up all night
Just forget the time
Any time I want to
Any place I need to
I'll be there
Yeah, I'll be alright...

We're Cheeky Monkeys
We're Cheeky Monkeys
Just like the Bee Gees
We put the words down so they rhyme
Yeah, we rock in the summer
(Rock in the summer)
And we sleep in the winter
(Sleep in the winter)
Then we park where we want to
(Park where we want to), pay the fine

Yeah, Cheeky Monkeys
Cheeky Monkeys
Do you know, I'm right!
Do ya wanna fight?
I'll stay up all night
Just forget the time
Any time I want to
Any place I need to
I'll be there
Yeah, I'll be alright...

Cheeky Monkeys
Cheeky Monkeys
Cheeky Monkeys
Cheeky Monkeys
Cheeky...

Got to get out more
Get in the place
Got to work out more
And sort out my face
I've got all the 'zines that tell me what to eat
And I'm tired of being told what to wear on my feet
And I don't have the time to get all worked up
About the year on the street

And it's not my fault, I can find my way
Yeah it's not my fault, there goes another day
I've been here too long, do I have to change
Into what it takes
To make it number one ?

I feel out of favour
I don't look like a picture
You think I'm a loser,
But I can see through you
You're running around like you're running the country
I know that you think that you've got one on me
Ear to the ground, like the boy about town
Can't get nothing to fit me

And it's not my fault, I can find my way
Yeah it's not my fault, there goes another day
I've been here too long, do I have to change
Into what it takes
To make it number one ?

Got a call from an old friend, used to be real close
Said he couldn't go on the American way
Sold his house, sold his car
Bought a ticket to the West Coast
Now he gives 'em a stand-up routine in L.A.

Bad idea (x 4)

Ninety-nine per cent is great,
The other one percent I hate,
Little things keep bugging in my head

Wake up calls, smack and that, fashion cafe, friendly fire
GMTV, darker mornings and pay per view, litter dropping

I made a list, I got the lot and all
That stuff is all on top It's not fair but I don't care not me

Rocky Five, Indie shite, KKK, number crunching
bungee jumping, paying taxes, pavement cracks
car alarms, dinosaurs and protest songs are-

Bad idea (x 4)

Give me a B. A. D. I
Give me a D. E. A...
Bad idea!

Everybody in the building has to sing the song
All the boys and all the girlfriends sing the sing-a-long

Think I'm in trouble, there's always a couple
Around me wherever I go
They're out there to bug me
I don't think it's funny
Everybody's laughing at me, yeah

I wanna go out but there's no-one about
All my friends want a quiet one at home
The same age as me and
They're husbands-to-be, yeah
Everybody in the building

Everybody in the building has to sing the song
All the boys and all the girlfriends sing the sing-a-long

I make a move here and I make a move there,
I've got millions of things on the go
I write me the best lines
They're too corny sometimes
Everybody's laughing at me

Everybody in the building has to sing the song
All the boys and all the girlfriends sing the sing-a-long
Everybody in the building has to sing the song
All the boys and all the girlfriends sing the sing-a-long

I know when I find her
There's rings on her finger
I've tried every trick in the book
I've got some hard pride
I've got time on my side
Everybody's gone without me, yeah

Everybody in the building has to sing the song
All the boys and all the girlfriends sing the sing-a-long
Everybody in the building has to sing the song
All the boys and all the girlfriends sing the sing-a-long

First steppeed out of the aeroplane
Felt like I'd been here before
Took a [...] down, put a smile on my face
Felt like I could do more

How ace are buildings?
How big are the blocks?
Reminds me of London
Stuck in a graveyard

Six foot deep, bleaker street, no-one in town
People smile, never got the time
I look down, I cannot see the ground
The man who reads the news says there's no crime

There's no-one around
There wasn't a sound
There's no-one to arrest
[...]

Fell in love with it, don't wanna leave it
Don't ever wanna go back
Skateboards are cheaper, everything's bigger
Whole place stops for the Winter of '96

Minus 10, 1pm east village time
I laugh at your [...]
Snowstorm, so we walk 70 blocks
On days like this, nothing seems too far

Get in the shot
I don't ask a lot
The weather was frozen
It wasn't a [...]

Fell in love with it, don't wanna leave it
Don't ever wanna go back
Skateboards are cheaper, everything's bigger
Whole place stops for the Winter of '96

Maybe I could be here a long time
Much longer than I planned to stay
No telling when they'll get the airport open
No telling when I'll get away

Trying to tell that nothing's wrong
Trying to get the fire back on
Never lost a day of fun
Silence in the heightened mass of [...]

How ace are buildings?
How big are the blocks?
Reminds me of London,
Stuck in a gridlock

Naa, naa, naa, na na naaa, naaa
Naa, naa, na na na naaaa
Naa, naa, naa, na na naaa, naaa
Naa, naa, na, naow

I like the summer like you like your wife
Live in the master for the rest of my life

Every year since I was young
And always here and always fun,
Distant places, stinging faces
All at once I understand it's the summer

Over and over it's summer again
Fills up the sad hole in my head again

Sit for hours just passing vows to
Let their hair down to the sound
Distant places, stinging faces
All at once I understand it's the summer

It's withered flowers and big huge skies
It's high for hours and then it dies

Ocean keeps me up all night
The sunshine makes my hair turn white
You know I hate the winter time
All because there's nothing quite like the summer

It's withered showers and breeze off shore
It's high for hours and back for more
It's withered showers and big, big skies
It's high for hours and then it dies...

You're always fighting everyone
You were wrong when you were young
You love to think you're on the run, oh!
Had to laugh at all your jokes
Had to tremble 'cos you smoked
Bet you'd never ever get my fun, yeah

You're the one to run from self they say (self they say)
I remember you back in the day (in the day)
Did my best to keep out of the way

Kicked it up in school, singing out of tune
While you're fighting everyone
I've been hanging in the sun
There's a million things I've done, oh!
You're the one who took the lead
Me least likely to succeed
Different now, yeah you agree
Alright!

You're the one to run from self they say (self they say)
I remember you back in the day (in the day)
Did my best to keep out of the way

Kicked it up in school, singing out of tune
Thought you were the rule, singing out of tune

Everybody, keep out of his way (x 4)

Oh!

Singing out of tune...

You're the one to run from self they say (self they say)
I remember you back in the day (in the day)
Did my best to keep out of the way

Kicked it up in school, singing out of tune
Everybody knew, singing out of tune

Singing out of tune
Woooooo
Always fighting everyone...

I'd have my house under the ground
All my friends would all come round
Laugh about the ones who got away
I wouldn't know the time of year
It's easier to tan down here

I find it funny
I laugh at people
And I don't know why
I sometimes giggle
If there's an earthquake
When good people die

I'd have my house under the ground
All my friends would all come round
Laugh about the ones who got away
I wouldn't know the time of year
It's easier to tan down here

I'll meet the big man
I'll do what I can
I'll suffer for my sins
Speak with a deep voice
Listen to metal
So that the good guys never win

I'd have my house under the ground
All my friends would all come round
Laugh about the ones who got away
I wouldn't know the time of year
It's easier to tan down here

Yeah, you should see the man
That you see on Christmas day
By six o'clock on the sixth of June it's OK...

Gather round under the sun
Make the things I've done
Make them understand

I'd have my house under the ground
All my friends would all come round
Laugh about the ones who got away
I wouldn't know the time of year
It's easier to tan down here

House under the ground (x 4)

I'd have my house under the ground
All my friends would all come round
Laugh about the ones who got away
I wouldn't know the time of year
It's easier to tan down here
Sorry for the things I said that day

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've seen it all
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I've heared it all
J.P wants to rock
Not at five o'clock he's not
There's a medal in the kitchen
For catching early worms
Yeah, yeah, yeah you're gonna bet
Yeah, yeah you're gonna learn

Don't bother waking me at five in the morning
'Cos I don't wanna know
Don't bother waking me at five in the morning
'Cos I don't wanna know

Stevie knows that it ain't dead, yeah
Farmer, uncle still in bed
M.A.C was born to rock
There's not a moment that he's not
'A' Communication, illin' in my sleep
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I lost count of my sheep

Don't bother waking me at five in the morning
'Cos I don't wanna know
Don't bother waking me at five in the morning
'Cos I don't wanna know

Don't look back (x 2)

No-
Never, never looking back
Never falling off the track
Never clocking late for work
'Cos rocking pays the bills so I don't
Need no occupation,
I don't need any sleep
Yeah, yeah, yeah I never need to set my 'Series 3'

Don't bother waking me at five in the morning
'Cos I don't wanna know
Don't bother waking me at five in the morning
'Cos I don't wanna know
Don't bother waking me at five in the morning
'Cos I don't wanna know
Don't bother waking me at five in the morning
'Cos I don't wanna know

Waaaagh!

Thanks a bunch for staying with us tonight
Over lunch we'll talk about the lights

I need to go now, I need to drive round
I need to lie down

Thanks, I'm stunned, it's time to go
I promise you're the best friend
Then in the end, that wont make it so

I need to go now, I need to drive round
I need to lie down

Probably noticed, probably worth it, just about
Probably noticed, probably worth it, just about

Thanks, thanks a lot
Yeah we love you all
And thanks, please thank your mums
'Cos you are the best that we've ever known

I need to go now, I need to drive round
I need to lie down

Probably noticed, probably worth it, just about
Probably noticed, probably worth it, just about

Everytime I hear you I feel lonesome inside
Everytime I see you I feel happy and around

I need to lie down
I need to go now, I need to lie down
My head's in a spin, the state that I'm in
I need to go now
